Thanks Johan.
The xtabond2 does not either seem to support factor variables.
Any suggestions?

Not true. Using abdata, this works fine:

. xtabond2 n l.n l(0/1).(c.w##c.k) yr1980-yr1984, gmm(l.n w k) iv(yr1980-yr1984, passthru) noleveleq 

Perhaps you should

adoupdate xtabond2, update

as you may not have the latest version of the program.
